13 The Apollo Theater - Harlem
….the Apollo probably exerted a greater influence upon popular culture than any other entertainment venue in the world. For blacks it was the most important cultural institution–not just the greatest black theatre, but a special place to come of age emotionally, professionally, socially, and politically. Ted Fox, “Showtime at the Apollo” I told them the rules: “If you like the performer, cheer. You know how to cheer, don’t you?” And the audience let out a roar that rattled windows all over Harlem.” The Apollo! - Ralph Cooper, “Amateur Night at the Apollo” Music and Comedy (Bill Cosby - 60’s) On January 26, 1934, the 125th Street Apollo Theater opens with the show “Jazz a la Carte” headlined by Benny Carter and his Orchestra, Ralph Cooper and Aida Ward. Billie Holiday, Lena Horne, and the Count Basie Orchestra are among those to make their debut. Amateur Night at the Apollo started in 1934 – Talent competition (Think, American Idol) Shows were broadcasted live over the radio Ella Fitzgerald won Amateur Night when she was 15! The “Executioner” – Normal Miller (“Porto Rico”) Held this competition until 2011 Jazz greats like Miles Davis, John Coltrane and Thelonius Monk appear at the Apollo in the 50’s

Many musicians were called to fight, left many women blues musicians here to perform Jazz helped soldiers remember how to stay strong Germans banned jazz and American music in clubs and changed the names of their songs Eventually made it a part of their “reich” Rewrote songs with anti-semetic lyrics “Men died for this music” – Dizzy Guillespi

Social Expectations – appropriateness Billie Holiday Queen of the Trumpet – Valaida Snow Sarah Vaughn WWII – their time

20 Jazz Styles New Orleans – strong African influence
Joe “King” Oliver Louis Armstong – prime elements of rock steady Swing Style – Armstrong, shout chorus, melodic Big Band BeBop- Charlie Parker, Dizzy Guillespie, dialog within music, “tritones” Cool Jazz – Brubeck, strange time signature, catchy, COOL Hard Bop – 50’s, not as popular as rock and roll Free Jazz – never adhered to standard, Ornette Coleman Fusion style – jazz and rock, funk, Herbie Hancock, Miles Davis

21 Jazz Styles Big Band/Swing - The decade was the 1920s….new combinations…..big bands usually made up of ten or more players. ….became known as “swing” music, a high energy jazz style that packed the dance floors. Big band leaders at the height of this movement included Benny Goodman and Duke Ellington. (Frank Sinatra!) Bebop- By the 1940s, with the popularity of the big band sound in full swing, one of the most fascinating of the jazz styles emerged—Bebop….group sized dwindled to 4-6 musicians. The style featured complex melodies and chord progressions and was basically not adaptable to dancing. A vocal style known as "scat" also appeared. Trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie is generally considered to be the father of bebop. Hard bop - An extension of Bebop that was somewhat interrupted by the Cool sounds of West Coast Jazz, Hard Bop melodies tend to be more "soulful" than Bebop, borrowing at times from Rhythm & Blues and even Gospel themes. The rhythm section is sophisticated and more diverse than the Bop of the 1940's. Pianist Horace Silver is known for his Hard Bop innovations. Straight ahead Jazz that was re-popularized in the 50’s and 60’s going back to the traditional sound Jazz fusion - any type of music fused with a little bit of jazz Free Jazz s……was very much experimental and unique in that pitch and tone were arranged by musicians to develop squeaking and wailing sounds. However, this is one of the jazz styles that has never been widely accepted by public audiences. (Ornette Coleman) Cool Jazz - Evolving directly from Bop in the late 1940's and 1950's, Cool's smoothed out mixture of Bop and Swing tones were again harmonic and dynamics were now softened. (Miles Davis/John Coltrane)

22 Take the A-Train – Duke Ellington - Big Band/Swing
My Favorite Things – John Coltrane – Bebob/hard bop/free jazz Dishy Billy – Sonny Sharrock – Jazz-core Upstart – Don Ellis Band – Big Band Miles Runs the Voodoo Down – Miles Davis – Cool jazz Peace – Ornette Coleman – Free jazz Black Bottom Stomp – Wynton Marsalis – straight ahead jazz What’s New – St. Germain – Nu-jazz/Electronic Under my Skin – Frank Sinatra – Big Band Words I Manifest – Gang Starr – Jazz-rap Cold Cold Heart – Norah Jones – Straight ahead/Contemporary Watermelon Man – Herbie Hancock – Jazz Fusion You’re Outta Here – Lorraine Feather – Vocal Jazz Reckoner – Robert Glasper - Contemporary
